Such an awesome writeup you guys!

Special commendation must go to Kiett. Even though at times it was arduous, she persevered and made that manga as awesome as it is. God knows how many Dota games were missed, but in the end it was all worth it!

Awesome write up. But really...no more "haters gonna hate". That's like using UMADBRO? as a caption. In all seriousness though, I still can't believe that Flash lost both of those games...it was almost surreal watching that happen...seeing him in the booth after getting beat by Bisu was really sad to see. Flash could have the last laugh though if he manages to snag a 7th starleague title, while Bisu will be stuck at home watching(getting hydra busted in prelims? REALLY? Before possibly the last OSL? REALLY? Bisu Bisu Bisu.....)

Awesome, so glad I got to watch. I actually woke up for no particular reason almost just as it started after only 4 hours of sleep. Luckily I remembered what was going on and didn't just go back to sleep.

I love Flash genius to death, but 2pacalypse's article on the Bisu vs. Flash is so lacking and so deceiving that readers who haven't seen the games think it was too simple. For example, Bisu didn't make just zealots because he lost core. Core was already on the way, and the speedlot wave transition was part of the plan, if you look at the game in its totality. There were a few other significant details that the article missed that made it unreflective of the epicness of the Ace match.

Still, I love the fact the if indeed that if going to be the last BW PL game, it run with the show!

god I love these circled letters so much

I drew those circles. Yeah. Me. Fuck the manga, the circles are my true masterpieces.


Hahahah! Comment of the day.

Glad to see SKT win. Props to everybody on the writing staff. Sad to see so many references to the 'end' of BW pl tho ;;

I miss some more analysis of the ace match. I have a couple of questions regarding Flash's decisions:

1. Why did he not take the gas right after he destroyed Bisu's first assimilator? Was this a mistake, or didn't he mind that Bisu build another assimilator?

2. How can a player of Flash's caliber not realize the consequences of destroying a cybernetics core, that is no more dragoons for Bisu. I can't understand why he would not build some vultures right after destroying the core, since all Bisu could build now was zealots.

I hope someone here will try to enlighten my regarding these questions.

It would be epic if he did it against Fantasy (as a send off to TvT, which has not happened for many years), but if Fantasy defeats him in the final... that would be insane.

Economy, he needed to build Marines to fend off the Zealot aggression, he could have built the Refinery, but why bother when he was building the 2nd CC and could just build it there later?

Flash did manage to get out 3 Vultures, but Bisu's zealots were already in the main, the Vultures were stuck in traffic because of them, and they did not have the speed upgrade to escape. They were quickly butchered, and not having tank support meant they could not have any back-up; and that isn't even considering the 2 Dragoons present on the ramp.

IN ANY CASE:

DAMN THAT WRITEUP <3

as for 1, the combination of bisu retaking it, having to deal with zealots etc and probably planning to get an expand out all factored into it.

for 2. bisu rebuild his citadel before it was even close to dying. flash had to assume that when bisu starting taking fire on the core he could've / would've rebuilt it in the same timing he remade the citadel. the zealots weren't so much forced by flash but a reaction by bisu
